Blood test near me
in Whitestone, NY

Woke up Monday AM with a weird wheezing cough. Booked for Tuesday PM. Upon arrival, I only waited for less then 10 minutes until my name was called. The staff, nurses and doctors were all friendly. I was out in 30 minutes.

Spent the majority of my visit trying to convince Dr. Manuel Esteban that I wasn’t feeling well. I found him incredibly antagonizing for no reason. I came in to the urgent care to get an updated letter for time off (workers comp) with my job, as I still wasn’t feeling well enough to go back to work after a week. For some reason, it didn’t seem my concerns with returning to work were sufficient to him (attention, critical thinking, reflexes, quality of care), even with him knowing I work with young autistic children. He refused to give me any sort of input/advice regarding my concussion or how much more time I might need off unless it was in opposition to something I said. The appointment was so stressful, as I was already in pain and having difficulty thinking critically with my concussion, I left my appointment in tears. Frankly, I have never been treated so poorly from a physician and after this experience, I will never be returning to this urgent care.
